Fresh cut flowers need colder temperatures to prevent wilting, but they need a cooler designed specifically for storing delicate flowers. Standard commercial refrigerators and walk-in coolers create low humidity that’s maintained by fast airflow, which is great for most food items but can promote dehydration in flowers and plants. When flowers become dehydrated, shelf life is dramatically decreased, which can increase your inventory losses. As flowers dry out, the tips of the petals curl, turn brown, and eventually fall off, creating an unattractive product your customers won’t buy. Even if flowers are just beginning to wilt, customers see an inferior product, and you could lose valuable business.

To remain fresh and beautiful, flowers need high humidity and gentle airflow. Our floral coolers are specially designed with low-velocity evaporator coils to protect the stems, leaves, and petals of fragile flowers. Low velocity ensures humidity is kept high while the air circulates slowly and gently, preventing flowers from being damaged. You’ll lose fewer flowers to dehydration and stem wilt and enjoy a longer shelf life for all your buds and floral arrangements. Continually providing the freshest flowers possible also helps define your shop’s quality, which keeps customers coming back for more.
